This is article 9477 with straight blades. Madeira’s current online shop lists 10.5 cm and Madeira UK names it as the 4-inch model; some Madeira hobby catalogues give 12 cm / 4.5 inches, so the article number is the most reliable identifier. Simple blade geometry, detailed work Why a straight pair belongs beside the embroidery hoop Straight scissors give a direct sight line along the blade and are easy to position for exposed thread ends. They make a versatile workroom choice when you do not need the offset clearance of curved or double-curved scissors. 1 Direct sight line The straight blades let you see the intended cutting path without accounting for an offset curve. 2 Precise to the tips Madeira specifies clean cutting through to the points for neat thread, yarn and floss finishing. 3 24-carat gold plating The gold-plated surface gives the practical straight model its decorative Madeira finish. Gold plated does not mean solid gold. The 24-carat description refers to the surface finish over the scissor body. A versatile needlework tool Use the straight points for short, controlled cuts Madeira describes article 9477 as suitable for all types of needlework and for cleanly nipping thread, yarn and floss. It is a precision finishing tool rather than a substitute for fabric shears. Hand embroidery Trim floss and thread tails around detailed hand-stitched work. Cross stitch and crafts Keep the compact straight points ready for counted-thread work and general needlecraft finishing. Machine embroidery threads Cut accessible jump threads after stopping the machine and safely supporting or removing the hoop. Protect the cutting edge.

Madeira 9477 straight scissors FAQs How large are Madeira 9477 scissors? Madeira’s current online shop lists approximately 10.5 cm, and Madeira UK markets article 9477 as a 4-inch model. Some hobby catalogues give 12 cm / 4.5 inches, so check the physical item if an exact measurement is critical. Are the blades straight or curved? They are the straight-blade Madeira embroidery scissors. Choose article 9476 for a curved tip or 9478 for a raised double-curved shape. Are the scissors made from solid gold? No. Madeira specifies a 24-carat gold-plated surface, which describes the finish rather than the core material. What can I cut with them? Madeira recommends them for cleanly trimming thread, yarn and floss across embroidery and other needlework. Are they suitable for machine embroidery? Yes, for accessible thread trimming after the machine is stopped. Curved scissors may be easier when the thread is deep inside a hoop. Can I use them to cut fabric? They are precision thread scissors. Use suitable fabric shears for long fabric cuts and appliqué scissors for close fabric-edge trimming. Are they suitable for left-handed users? Madeira does not label article 9477 as a dedicated left-handed model. Handle comfort and blade visibility can vary, so test the grip if left-handed use is essential. How should I store them? Keep them clean and dry with the blades closed and the precision points protected from contact with heavier tools. Straightforward precision for daily needlework Keep fine straight points ready beside every thread project Madeira 9477 combines compact straight blades, precise cutting through to the tips and a 24-carat gold-plated finish for controlled thread trimming.
